Default Have you reached a Mini-Goal! Brag about it here!

Welcome to the Mini-Goal forum! This is the place to share when you reach a mini-goal such as 10 pounds lost, losing a dress size, or even conquering that pesky snack habit. It's good to celebrate every step of the way, not just when you get there!

If you want to SET a mini-goal, please feel free to post in our Weight Loss Support forum.

The more, the merrier? We have you covered! Go to our Chicks up for a Challenge forum and set up a challenge for your next mini-goal and invite others to join you

Smile Twenty five pounds down!

I gained 5-10 lb a year for the past decade, leaving me 70lb overweight and discouraged. Seven weeks ago I started IP and, as of today, have shed 25lb. I have so much more energy, enjoy picking out my clothes to wear for the day, and look forward to whittling down the remaining 45lb. As someone who does not like dieting, I have to say nothing feels better than reaching a healthier weight, and realizing I CAN DO THIS!

I started out at 193.8 on November 10, my mini goal was to lose 10 pounds by Thanksgiving. I weighed in at 183.4 a week ahead of my deadline! On to my next mini goal of getting in the 170s by the end of the week. Setting mini goals really make the time go by fast when you are counting down the pounds! Also down 2 shirt sizes yay!! But now I have no shirts that fit lol, but that's a good problem. Congrats to all you on reaching your mini goals!!

Yes! I have reached a mini goal.... slightly over 10 lbs lost. I am so excited about it. It is becoming real, real weight loss and the dream of being at goal weight is for the first time a real possibility!

@DVMarie,
just like you I love the idea of setting these mini goals as a challenge and a bet with myself. Nothing is as encouraging as loosing the weight. It is so easy to get discouraged when the weight loss does not match up with the incredible amount of commitment and sacrifice we put in every day. So seeing actual results is the best motivator of all! Good job!

I started out at 264.4 and I am now at 214.4. That is a hard fought mini goal which I got to TWICE. Losing it once was to be commended but having to lose it twice was a bit on stupid side. Here I am and headed for 154.4 . I know I can make it. My next mini goal is below 210 and the below 200. So close and yet so far.

Default My first mini goal.

Last week did my first mini goal, it was to smoking and drinking coffee all together.
I will be getting bariatric surgery done in two week.
So I had to stop smoking and drink coffee, a cup of coffee is not the same with out a cigarette.
So that was my first mini goal starting my journey.
